[IC-7000] IC-7000 and SOTA
|

Well, no, not really. I was thinking of a deep cycle marine and a backup battery for when that ran down. Why do it not play well with a battery? Probably will run the least watts I need, but start with 50. Can't do SOTA with gas powered energy (why not???).Alex Netherton

¿ªÔÆÌåÓýFor field day our club runs a 7000 and ft897 both on two deep cycle batteries with battery savers and change the batteries out twice with two spare sets. That is 3 batteries for each radio. By the way, those batteries also power an inverter each to power a laptop for logging. Setup is battery saver, radio, inverter, and laptop on one battery x two stations. Granted those batteries are LARGE but if you had 3 of them with a similar station setup, ?you would have 24 hours at least. And if you had a small generator and charger on the side to recharge the batteries while you are using the other battery, you "technically" are not running on gas power correct?
